Title:
Folksong: "Vu iz dos gesele, vu iz dos shtib?"   (Where is the street?  Where is the house?")
Description:

A Yiddish folksong about times gone by.

"Vu iz dos gesele, vu is dos shtib"

Where is the little street, where is the house?

Where is the girl, whom I do love?

Here is the little street, here is the house

Here is the girl whom I do love

The little street is gone, the house is gone

Gone is the girl whom I love

 

This song was collected by a YIVO Folklore zamler (collector) from a Jewish informant in Grodno. c.1930s.
